SIDING REPLACEMENT IN RICHMOND, VA

Your home’s siding acts as a protective barrier against Mother Nature for you and your family, but it can only do so much when it’s old, worn down, and weathered. If you notice rot, cracks, gaps, drafts near walls and windows, or siding that no longer lies flat, it may be time to have your siding replaced.

Replacing your siding gives your home a whole new look, extends your home’s resilience against Mother Nature, increases its energy efficiency, and lowers your maintenance costs.

How often you need to replace your siding depends on the type of siding on your home as well as how well it's been maintained over the years. As Greater Richmond's top siding service, we proudly offer a range of siding products, so you can choose your home’s new exterior to fit your needs and wants while staying within your budget.

Insulated Vinyl

Take your traditional vinyl siding and add rigid-foam insulation behind it, and you’ve got insulated vinyl siding. It will help lower your heating and cooling costs as well as level the wall behind the siding, hiding any imperfections that may occur when walls shift and homes settle over time. The foam also helps your siding withstand impacts from balls, rocks, and any other object that may damage it.

Five Major Signs You Need To Replace Your Siding

Your home’s siding acts as a protective barrier against Mother Nature for you and your family, but it can only do so much when it’s old, worn down, and weathered.

While answering the question, “When should I replace my siding?” largely depends on the type of siding you have, there are certain factors that apply across the board.

Here are the top 5 signs you need to replace your siding.

01

Damaged Boards or Panels

If you notice any physical damage to your siding – whether it’s warping, rotting, or soft to the touch – it’s time to replace it.

02

Loose, Cracking, Fading, or Peeling Siding

These are all signs of natural wear-and-tear, from sun exposure and inclement weather to the ebbs and flows of frost and thaw cycles. And if you try to paint your siding but it doesn’t seem to hold, it’s time to replace it.

03

Water or Moisture Damage

Any rotting, mold, or fungal growth you notice on your siding means water is getting past it. This damage may appear as warping, rusting, or swelling, depending on the siding material you have.

04

Interior Wall Damage

Any moisture damage or mold growth inside your walls could point toward a siding issue, no matter how your siding looks outside. Interior wall damage, including paint peeling or wallpaper bubbling, often points to a serious problem requiring immediate attention.

05

High Energy Bills

Hurting your home’s energy efficiency, overlooked gaps or holes in your siding may present themselves in the form of high utility bills every month.

FAQs:

Your Siding Questions, Answered

Why Should I Reside My Home?

The most common reason to reside your home is that the current siding is failing, whether it’s cracking, rotting, or rusting. When siding starts to fail, it’s important to take care of it sooner rather than later so further damage can be prevented.

Another reason people reside is to update the appearance of their home. as new siding can make a huge difference to your curb appeal.
How Often Do I Need To Update My Home's Siding?

Most siding products last about 50 years. Some older wood siding can have an incredibly long useful life – reaching up to 100 years – but they are extremely maintenance-intensive. Meanwhile, metal siding lasts an extremely long time without much maintenance, but it is pretty rare in and around the Richmond area.
How Do I Maintain My Vinyl Siding?

Vinyl tends to collect algae over the years, so the best remedy for this is to use a light bleach solution in a power washer with a “soft tip.” You don’t want too much pressure because it can actually break the vinyl.

Vinyl tends to look chalky over time as the color starts to fade, but it can be painted with the correct type of paint. It’s best to consult with a siding professional before taking this massive project on yourself.
How Will Updating My Siding Change Its Look?

Siding is the most noticeable exterior feature of a home. You can see it from every angle, so it’s really important that it looks nice.

Changing worn and dated siding can revitalize your home while protecting it for many years to come. Plus, depending on the siding material you choose, you can change your home's overall aesthetic simply by choosing a different color, texture, or style than its current siding.
